Rechargeables do not stay charged.

I work with NiCads in my tools and it takes good charging management to prevent being marooned. I've read that NiCads typically lose from 4 to 8% of their charge per day with a deceleration of loss as it nears complete drain.

I don't know the particularities of the battery the Sony uses but I'm quite sure that this is the phenomenon that we're noticing in this case.
